Episode 5 - Spiritual Direction & Future of Indian Culture - Readings from Eternal Values for a Changing Society

In the passages in this episode, we will conclude the reading of the first chapter in the first volume. It may be of interest to you know, these passages I have been reading in these first 5 episodes were from the speech titled “The Essence of Indian Culture” delivered by Swami Ranganathananda, at theRamakrishna Mission Institute of Culture in Kolkata, in December of 1964. The reason I bring this up is to highlight how eternal his words are and how timely they will seem today.  His thoughts on acceptance, tolerance, assimilation of various cultures and influences to create Indian thought is so inspiring from a global perspective.
